Description
The HPE Aruba Networking AP‑677EX (RW) is a rugged, tri-radio Wi‑Fi 6E access point engineered for the harshest outdoor and hazardous environments. Designed for oil rigs, mining sites, and industrial manufacturing facilities, this access point supports Wi‑Fi 6E with the 6 GHz band to provide faster speeds and ultra-low latency for bandwidth-intensive applications like HD video and AR/VR.
With internal directional antennas, high-power Bluetooth and Zigbee radios for IoT connectivity, GPS for self-location, and a ruggedized build compliant with Class 1 Division 2 and ATEX Zone 2 standards, the AP-677EX ensures seamless, secure wireless networking even in explosive or extreme temperature environments.
Ideal for mission-critical operations, it offers flexible wired connectivity via a 2.5 GbE port and 1 GbE SFP port and supports up to 3.9 Gbps aggregate throughput. Simplified Zero Touch Provisioning and Aruba Central support ensure easy deployment and centralized management.
